Telepathy 30 feet

When an imperfect automaton succeeds at a Will save, it gets a critical success instead. When it fails at a Will save, it gets a critical failure instead.

Unsubstantiated Consciousness

The imperfect automaton utters a mournful cry in a 30-foot cone. The cry deals 4d6 mental damage to all creatures in the area (DC 22 Will save). The imperfect automaton can&#x27;t use its Empty Wail again for 1d4 rounds.

Critical Success The creature is unaffected.
Success The creature takes half damage.
Failure The creature takes full damage and is <a href="/condition/stupefied">Stupefied 1</a> for [[/gmr 1d4+1 #rounds]]{1d4+1 rounds}.
Critical Failure The creature takes double damage and is stupefied 1 for 1d4+1 rounds and <a href="/condition/stunned">Stunned 1</a>.

Empty Wail

While the imperfect automaton is affected by an emotion effect, its fist Strikes deal 1d6 additional mental damage.
